dealing with computations which involved "effective" or "mechanical" methods for finding results (which could also be expressed as solutions (values) to formulae).

Brookshear (2012‚ p.242) indicate that "Since the statements in a third-generation language did not refer to the attributes of any particular machine‚ they could be compiled as easily for one machine as for another". Since machines can understand and execute instructions written in machine language‚ then a program has to be machine-specific

1 Could a machine be conscious? This question is often dismissed as simple by those that would say “yes” in response. The usual claim made by the pro camp is that man is a ‘biological machine’ and is conscious‚ ergo‚ a machine is conscious. If we‚ humans‚ are truly biological machines and we are at the same time conscious then I would agree that yes‚ categorically‚ a machine could be conscious. But is it really that simple? I contend that it is a more difficult problem but not that it is a complicated
